The sixth annual Honey Badgers vs. Cobras ladies arm wrestling tournament on Saturday raised more than $7,800 for charity -- much of it in the form of dollar bills stuffed into sports bras.

The Warrior Room kettlebell studio in Milwaukie conceived and hosts the annual fundraiser in which 24 wrestlers in two brackets - Honey Badgers are short and mighty, Cobras are tall and fierce - face off in a rowdy, theatrical, elimination tournament. Wrestlers don costumes and take on stage names like "Carmen Slam-Diego" and "Rosie the Ruiner."

Think the "Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling" as a battle of the biceps.

This is not your typical nonprofit fundraiser. Instead of bidding on silent auction items, attendees come ready to shower the wrestlers with cash. It's a 21 and older affair that can get pretty raucous.

"It's definitely not a traditional fundraiser because it is a little bit more rough around the edges," said Ashley Jensen, owner of The Warrior Room. "It's all in good fun, and it's raising money for something that's really powerful."

Upper body strength has little to do with who claims the championship. Much like WWE wrestling, this is "sports entertainment" with scripted plot lines, bribed referees and anything-goes rules.

"Nonprofits tend to have their traditional fundraisers, which are a little more formal," said Julia Doty, director of resident services for Northwest Housing Alternatives. "It's really nice to be able to get community support from a group that is so fun and just willing to do whatever they need to do to raise funds for an important cause like this."
